The development of chylothorax and chylopericardium are serious and often life-threatening clinical entity. The ideal treatment of these problems is not well established to date. We reviewed our experiences with chylothorax or chylopericardium in 16 patients [17 cases] from July 1979 to May 1989. Ages ranged from 20 days to 41 years. The etiologies were traumatic in 10, congenital or idiopathic in 5, and tuberculous lymphadenopathy in one. In 8 patients, the chylothorax or chylopericardium occurred as a complication of cardiothoracic surgery. Eleven patients were treated nonoperatively with either repeated thoracenteses or chest tube drainage. Five patients underwent operative treatment: transthoracic thoracic duct ligation [three patients], thoracic duct ligation combined with decortication [one], and oversewn the defect of mediastinal pleura[one]. Duration of preoperative therapy ranged from 18 to 38 days. One of eleven [9.1 %] patients treated nonoperatively died. Of the surgically treated group, there were no deaths. All patients except one dead cured or improved either treated nonoperatively or operatively. Our experience suggests that surgical management of the chylothorax or chylopericardium is not always required, and each patient must be judged individually according to disease process.

Esophageal fistulas may occur in an advanced stage or as a potentially life-threatening complication of treatment. They can be divided into esophageal-respiratory and esophageal-aorta fistulas. The diagnosis is confirmed with fluoroscopy using dilute barium oral contrast, followed by thin-section computed tomography, which defines the precise location and extent of the fistula. Flexible esophagoscopy and bronchoscopy are required for confirmation and anatomic assessment of the suspected fistula and provide additional information for treatment planning. Contamination is traditionally controlled by surgical exclusion, along with a jejunal feeding tube. Currently, fully covered self-expanding metal stents are the primary treatment option.

As society gradually enters a virtual, non-face-to-face society, the use of online content is increasing as well. In particular, as smartphones are thoroughly established in our daily life, the platforms of webtoons, mobile broadcasting, and education are shifting from personal computers to smartphones. Recently, the development of the Over-The-Top media service (OTT service) enabled streaming services of various media contents through the internet and activation of IPTV. Therefore, the rapid increase of popularity of short-form content is a natural phenomenon with smartphone platforms with fast, improvised, and endless communication. Lately, TikTok became the favored platform with prosumers, defined as people who are both producers and consumers. In this study, I studied the experiential response of YouTube and TikTok users as representative examples of a short-form content platform developed after the 2000s, the flourishing years of digital content with a length of 30 seconds.

Unilateral pulmonary edema after minimally invasive cardiac surgery is a rare, but potentially life-threatening condition. However, the exact causes of unilateral pulmonary edema remain unclear. We experienced aggressive unilateral pulmonary edema followed by redo-resection of recurrent left atrial myxoma through a right mini-thoracotomy. Intraoperative veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was applied after the termination of cardiopulmonary bypass, and separate mechanical ventilation using a double-lumen endotracheal tube was applied after surgery. The patient was successfully treated and discharged uneventfully.

For the evaluation of anti-tumor activity of Korean Oldenlandia Herb (KOH) and Radix (KOR), our experiment was performed with methanol extracts of KOH and KOR. They did not shown any cytotoxicity against HT1080 cell lines. However, they effectively showed anti-metastatic activity through inhibition of the adhesion of HT1080 cells to gelatin, downregulated the expression of MMP2 and uPA and upregulated the expression of TIMP2. They also inhibited tube formation of HUVECs induced by bFGF. However, they did not affect DNA topoisomerase I activity. Simiarly, the T/Cs % in KOH and KOR treated mice were increased 134.9% and 171 %, respectively at 2500 mg/kg. These results suggest that KOH and KOR exert anti-tumor activity via anti-metastatic and anti-angiogenic activities. The further study for isolation of effective compounds and its exact mechanism and comparative study with Chinese Oldenlandia Herba will be required.

탈지 가자박으로 부터 free, soluble 및 insoluble bound phenolic acids를 추출하여 식용대두유 기질에서 항산화효과률 0.02%(w/w)의 BHA, BHT의 항산화 효과와 비교하고자 각 기질과 대조구를 $60{\pm}1^{\circ}C$에서 35일간 저장하면서 매 7일 간격으로 과산화물가, TBA가를 측갱하였다. BHA, BHT와 free, soluble 및 insoluble hound phenolic acids를 첨가한 시험구와 대조구의 과산화물가는 21일의 경우 60, 30, 14, 11, 10, 100이었다. 같은 조건하에서 추출물의 TBA가는 0.150, 0.108, 0.105, 0.073, 0.078, 0.185이었다. 이것으로 보아 phenolic acids는 식용대두유 기질에서 우수한 항산화력을 나타내었다. 분리확인된 phenolic acids는 p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, phloroglucinol, pyrogallol, vanillic acid, caffeic acid으로 확인되었다.

본 연구의 목적은 유한요소 해석을 이용하여 항공기 엔진에 장착된 미세 튜브형 열교환기의 작동하중에 대한 특성을 파악하고 구조안전성을 평가하는 것이다. 작동 하중은 열-기계하중이 고려되었다. 항공기 엔진 부품의 특수성으로 인하여 구조적 강성확보뿐만 아니라 고효율, 저중량, 최소체적을 만족하는 형상 설계가 요구 된다. 브레이징한 미세튜브의 기계적물성치 확보를 위해 고온 인장 실험을 수행하였다. Ansys 12.1의 자체 모델러를 이용하여 형상을 모델링하고 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 열-구조 연성해석을 통하여 튜브를 제외한 모듈형(modular type) 열교환기에 대한 설계방법을 제시하고 구조적 건전성을 평가하였다.

Background : A 35-year-old woman was admitted to the emergency room with sudden dyspnea that developed one day prior. The initial Chest X-ray showed multiple bullous changes at the right middle and lower lung field and long standing fibrotic tuberculous changes at the right upper lung field. The left lung field was totally collapsed by an fibrotic old tuberculous lesion. In spite of supportive medical care with oxygen therapy after admission, the radiographic lesions were no significant change but the respiratory distress had worsened. The patient suffered respiratory failure and received mechanical ventilatory support. The HRCT showed a localized tension pneumothorax mimicking multiple giant bullae at the right lower lung field. Immediately after a closed thoracostomy with a 32 French chest tube and air drainage, her vital signs and dyspnea were gradually improved. The patient was successfully weaned from mechanical ventilation after 5 days of mechanical ventilatory support. The patient had received talc pleurodesis through a chest tube to prevent the recurrence of the life-threatening localized pneumothorax. The patient was discharged without recurrence of the pneumothorax.

A Ceramic Metal-halide lamp is achieved by adding multiple metals to a basic mercury discharge. Because the vapor pressure of most metals is very much lower than mercury itself, metal-halide salts of the desired metals, having higher vapor pressures, are used to introduce the material into the basic discharge. The metal compounds are usually polyatomic iodides, which vaporize and subsequently dissociate as they diffuse into the bulk plasma. Metals with multiple visible transitions are necessary to achieve high photometric efficiency and good color. Compounds of Sc, Dy, Ho, Tm, Ce, Pr, Yb and Nd are commonly used. The maximum visible efficacy of a Ceramic Metal Halide lamp, under the constant of a white light source, is predicted to be about 450lm/W. This is controlled principally by the chemical fill chosen for a particular lamp. Current these lamps achieve 130lm/W and these life time are the maximum 16,000[hr]. So factors of performance lower are necessary to improve lamp performance. In this paper, we analyzed factors of performance lower by accelerated deterioration test. The lamp was operated with short duration turn-on/turn-off procedure to enhance the effect due to electrode sputtering during lamp ignition. The tested lamp that was operated with a longer turn-on/off(20/20 minutes) showed blackening, changed distance between electrodes and lowered color rendering & color temperature by losses of Dy at 421.18nm, I at 511nm, T1 at 535nm and Na at 588nm compared with the new lamp.

백필터 집진기는 여러개 또는 수십개의 여과포를 구성하여 미세먼지를 정화시켜 깨끗한 공기를 대기에 방출시키는 일종의 공기청정기이다. 백필터 길이가 5m 이하인 경우 다이아프램 밸브에서 발생되는 압축공기를 벤추리를 통과시키는 것만으로도 백필터에 부착된 분진 및 흄을 효율적으로 탈진 할 수 있었다. 7m 이상의 롱백 탈진에 만족스러운 결과를 얻기 위해서는 더욱 효율이 높고 경제성 있는 인젝터 개발이 시급한 실정이다. 기존 국내외 인젝터의 경우 유지 보수시 다수의 블루튜브 해체작업과 인젝터와 블루튜브가 결합되어 중량증가로 인한 작업의 불편성 등 많은 문제를 내포하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 코안다 효과를 이용한 최적의 인젝터 개발을 위한 유동해석과 4차 산업의 지능형 자동화 탈진 기술이 접목되어, 기존 설비 대비 에너지 비용저감 및 필터 수명향상 등을 획기적으로 개선시키고자 하는 상용화 연구를 수행하였다.
